Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier (previously known as Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 4) is a video game published by Ubisoft and due for release on May 22nd, 2012 in America and May 24th, 2012 in Europe. Excluding expansions, it is the fifth installment in the Ghost Recon series, and was announced to be in development by Ubisoft on January 22, 2009. The game will be a futuristic take on the Ghost Recon series.
Initially, the title was revealed to be Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Predator by an OFLC release. However in December 2009, "Ghost Recon: Future Soldier" was trademarked by Ubisoft, raising speculation that this could be the name for the upcoming Ghost Recon 4. This was subsequently confirmed by an official announcement.
While the release of Future Soldier was targeted for the 2009-2010 fiscal year, Ubisoft later announced that the release date would be pushed back until the 2010-2011 fiscal year to "strengthen" its video game line-up. In May 2010, Ubisoft announced that the release of Future Soldier would be delayed until the "March quarter of 2011". It was later delayed until May 2012.
Ghost Recon: Future Soldier is actually content complete but Ubisoft Paris is wanting to ensure the best experience for players by holding it back for a few months to ensure as much of a the game is as good as they can get it to be.

Plot
Edit
As Kozak of the the 20-man Ghost Squad, the player and his/her squad of Pepper (machine gunner), 30k (reconnaisance expert), and Bones (engineer), fight Russian ultra-nationalists in Norway, Africa, the Middle East, and China.
GameplayEdit
GR: FS is a third-person cover-based shooter; however, aiming down the sights will cause it to switch to a first-person camera for more precise aiming. In addition, cover is partially destructible and fire from enemy machine guns will cause an FOV reducing 'suppression' effect.
With regard to equipment, Game designer Rafael Morado has also confirmed "optical camouflage," a prototype active camouflage system that, provided that they move slowly and do not fire, makes the Ghosts harder to see up close and completely invisible at a distance. In addition, Players will also be able to control drones, one of which is a large, remote-controlled scout quad-rotor that is also capable of surface travel and engaging enemies with lethal ranged weapons.
Furthermore, during E3 2011 Ubisoft debuted Gunsmith, which allows the player to customize and test weapons with alternative optics, attachments, trigger groups, barrels, and more in both singleplayer and multiplayer. In the campaign, players will unlock weapons complete with every one of their respective attachments by completing missions and challenges. On the other hand, in multiplayer, players will unlock weapons and earn credits for weapon parts as they level their character. Furthermore, on the XBox 360, players can use Kinect to customize their weapons through hand gestures and voice commands. In addition to bullet weapons, GR: FS will include shoulder-fired rocket launchers, the guidance systems of which are as of yet unknown.
Unlike previous Ghost Recon games, squad micromanagement is replaced by target marking: the Ghosts' AI handles the details. During firefights, the player can mark one high priority target on which squad-members should focus their fire, and outside of firefights, he/she can mark up to four targets for the Ghosts to shoot either with him/her, or on his/her command, in perfect synchronicity.
GunsmithEdit
The types of attachments and modifications for GR: FS's approximately 52 different weapons in the 'Gunsmith' customization tool are as folllows:
- Trigger Groups: Allow fire mode adjustments, such as full-auto and burst fire
- Magazines: Allow for greater capacity, alternative amunition, and faster reloading.
- Optics: Allow the attachment of both close-quarters and long-range optics
- Under-barrel: Grips and bipods for more accuracy, or Launchers and shotguns for damage.
- Side Rail: Aiming lasers and heartbeat sensors attach here
- Gas Systems: Fire rate adjustments are made here
- Paint: Camouflage
- Barrels: Change the length of barrel for long, close or mid range combat.
- Muzzle: Add suppressors for stealth or recoil compensators to increase precision or hide muzzle flash
- Stocks: Change the stock the increase manouverability or accuracy.
- Grips: Changes the pistol grip of the gun
In the single-player, Ghost and Russian weapons are unlocked by completing missions and challenges, respectively, and at any time during Gunsmith the player may go to the firing range to test his/her weapon at close, medium, long, and extremely long ranges.
MultiplayerEdit
GR: FS's multiplayer features a "Guerrilla" co-op mode for up to four players in addition to a full multiplayer experience.
ClassesEdit
Rifleman: Has access to Assault Rifles, Light Machine Guns, and heavy body armor. Scout: Has access to Sniper Rifles, Sub-Machine Guns, and active camouflage. Engineer: Has access to Shotguns, Personal Defence Rifles, and a wealth of intelligence and defensive equipment.
Note that weapons are unlocked per class.
